I don't think there's a browser setting. Maybe it's pibkac. ;-) Is
anyone else having that problem?

You're expecting a non-standard feature to work the same in all
browsers.

Yeah, well I was also expecting to see Kevin Vang tied to Liz Hurley,
but that didn't work out either.

The alt attribute is not intended to be displayed in a
popup when you hover over an image. That's for text to display while
an image loads or if the user has image display disabled. What
you're looking for is the 'title' attribute. Here's the cross
browser way to do what want:

IMG src="an_image.jpg" alt="some text" title="the same or other
text"

It's good to have geeky friends. ;-) Thanks Stan. Try it now, Mark.
